Description: The ol’ Ace Tone drum machines are just great and this FR3L and a rare housing that we’ve never had in shop before is no exception. Ace Tone was an early incarnation of Roland and this machine shares the similar analog lineage as those Roland Machines that changed the world (The CR-78, TR-808). You will instantly smile when you hear the fat, gooey, round kick drum, the musical chirp of the claves, the radical grind of the grainy snare and all the great preset beats that are built right in. Not enough for your creative spirit? Press down two buttons simultaneously and combine patterns into a unique beat. Now press down three and get even weirder. Chop it up and rearrange it in your DAW or add effects for even more versatility. This machine is full of great patterns, sounds excellent and will look killer in your studio.
